I started the day off with a road bike ride up the Monte Cristo route. Quite a few fellow cyclists were out enjoying the same ride. It was definitely the perfect day to be out on a bike. Shortly after I began, my husband texted me that he was taking the kids to Pineview Reservoir to play on the beach. When I reached mile marker 23 (about 4 mile from the parking lot at Monte Cristo) I decided that the beach sounded pretty fun so I headed back down.My family had already staked out their claim to some prime sand so I joined them for a nice morning at the reservoir. Even though it was a Saturday, the spot they picked had few people and the water was perfect. The kids had a great time building their sand fort and swimming. It was the perfect morning!
